If you like hard science fiction, start with 'The Three - Body Problem'. It's full of scientific concepts like the three - body problem in physics and how it could affect an entire civilization. It's also a great exploration of human nature in the face of an unknown and powerful alien threat. For a more light - hearted and pop - culture - filled adventure, 'Ready Player One' is a good choice. It's easy to get into and has a lot of fun references that many people can relate to.
